I had a little trouble parsing this comment.  Slightly better wording is:

    * Clone arch/x86/kernel/acpi/boot.c: acpi_generic_reduced_hw_init() here,
    * except don't change 'legacy_pic'.  It keeps its default value 'default_legacy_pic'.
    * mp_config_acpi_legacy_irqs() sees a non-zero nr_legacy_irqs(), and
    * eventually serial console interrupts can work properly.

Otherwise,
